    RECIPE
    ------
    ▪5-6lb or 2 1/2kg beef chuck roast
    ▪1 large onion
    ▪5 large carrots
    ▪2 celery stalks
    ▪1 head of garlic, cut in half
    ▪A few sprigs of thyme
    ▪2 bay leaves
    ▪750ml/1 bottle dry red wine (i’m using pinot noir)
    ▪1500g or 1.5L beef stock + additional 480g or 2 cups beef stock
    ▪25g or 1 3/4Tbsp tomato paste
    ▪42g or 1.5oz demi glace
    ▪230g or 1c water (to scrape fond from sheet tray)
    ▪4 packets or 1oz total? of powdered gelatine
    ▪1/2kg or 1lb of cremini mushrooms
    ▪6 small-medium yukon gold potatoes, peeled
    ▪57g or 4 Tbsp ( ½ stick) butter
    ▪Salt
    ▪Olive oil
    Preheat oven to 550F or as high as it will go. Cube up meat, cutting off large chunks of fat. Coat with a generous glug or two of olive oil and plenty of salt. Toss to coat, then place meat on a sheet tray. Roast in the oven for 15-20min then remove from oven.
    Peel and roughly chop onion, 1 carrot, and celery. Add bottle of wine to large heavy bottomed pot over high heat and add in onion, carrot, celery, garlic, and herbs and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium and cook for 15-20min. Reduce oven heat to 300f and add 1500g beef stock, tomato paste, and demi glace.
    With heat off, place a doubled layer of cheesecloth over your large pot (see video @3:50) and place been chunks on top of cheesecloth. Pour water into sheet tray and use a wooden spoon to scrape up as much fond as possible and add that into the pot. Tuck cheese cloth into pot and around beef, heat over med-high until simmering, then cover, and cook in the oven at 300F/148C for about 3 hours. Check the progress after about 2 hours, remove the lid and continue to cook for another 45min-1hour. When meat is braised properly it should be fork tender, but not completely falling apart. Allow to pot to cool slightly on the counter before placing in the fridge to cool completely.
    After cooled (i usually allow it to sit overnight), skim off as much fat as possible. Reheat the pot over medium heat to re-liquify. Once melted, remove beef from braising liquid. Using a fine mesh strainer, strain out and separate all solids from your braising liquid, making sure to squeeze out liquid from cheesecloth and veg. Skim off any excessive fat.
    Add strained liquid back into pot and heat to a simmer over medium high to reduce for about 45min or until thickened.
    Dissolve gelatine into 2 cups beef stock and allow to bloom for 5 minutes and add to braising liquid.
    Roughly chop carrots and mushrooms.
    When braising liquid is reduced by ⅔ add carrots and continue to cook for about 15 more minutes.
    Preheat nonstick pan over med-high heat. Add in olive oil (about 25g or generous squeeze) and add mushrooms and a pinch of salt. Cook for about 12 minutes over medium heat. Once golden brown, add mushrooms into braising liquid.
    When liquid is reduced to about 20% of it’s original volume and bubbles are becoming large, add beef back to braising liquid, spooning sauce over meat as it warms. Cook for 10 more minutes to continue reducing by about 5-10% more.
    Make smashed potatoes. Dice potatoes into 1” dice, add to sauce pan, cover with water, and bring to simmer then reduce heat to low and cook until done. Add butter and large pinch of salt. Mash and taste for seasoning.
    Serve beef, carrots, mushrooms and sauce over smashed potatoes.

      ​@@Tezorus stop confirm your words. I am a cook with several diplomas. tradition does not do it like that, you encourage poor foreigners to say "I made a real French Burgundian" when yes it looks like the visual at 95%, but the way done on this video will not give the real taste , for 1 meat not marinated for 24 hours, 2 wine not flambéed = acidity in the end and the reduction and in addition Burgundy wine anyway, 3 meat not "singer" the final texture and the cooking is totally different and the sauce too, and yet another thing which in the end will give and I think a very good dish. But not the beef bourguignon recognized and learned in our schools and our French establishments, there are still plenty of details to say to really make this dish in tradition I just put 2 3 points. I know that all French people have their own recipe and personal way of doing things, but this recipe, sorry, is not made as you say "we do like that too in France, French words" . j'ai écrit en anglais pour bien me faire comprendre de tous surtout ;-)

    Thanks, Brian. Made this for my dad’s birthday, and he absolutely loved it. I added the leeks, shallots, parsley and peppercorns from Thomas Keller’s version, but stuck to the rest of yours-gelatin, cheese cloth and all.
    One thing I noticed was the timing on the day-of was a little tricky to figure out based on the video and instructions (when each ingredient gets added to the reduction and how long the whole thing actually reduces), but I went back to look at the clock on your oven, which gave me a better idea. Adding a running timer to future videos would be a big help. Just an idea.
    Regardless, thanks again. It was delicious. Good call-it definitely didn’t need the bacon or onions. Lastly, my dad’s assessment: “if this kills me right now, I’m fine with that.”

    Hey !
    French viewer here !
    My father made this just last week and I actually was raise in burgundy 😉
    I'm really surprise that you don't use flour, beaucause I feel this is a key part !
    The traditionnal way you drench the raw beef in flour then give a first roast in a pan. This allow the beef to roast and the flour to get golden, so when you but the beef in the sauce to cook it allow the sauce to thicken 😊
    I actually never never heard of gélatine in a boeuf bourguignon and I find this very strange ^^
    Aside from that you recipe seems on point ! 👍👍👍
    If you what to go traditional go with the flour and it's not that much effort 😁

    I did a trial run a few weeks before and the sauce did not thicken as nicely as the second time. I had to simmer the sauce on day 2 for an hour (instead of 45 min.) Before I added the carrots in. I realize this might have been due to my Dutch oven being thinner and taller than yours. Also, the second time I made it I was more careful about removing the fat.

    I was intrigued by Beef Burg since I first saw this video 2 years ago. It looked a bit intense so I kept it on the "one day" shelf. Well, this holiday season, I was itching to make something nice. I decided to make this one. When wifey saw me watching this again, she asked me "why don't we just make beef stew like usual." I persisted. We made it together and it was hands down the best meal we have ever made in 20 years together. The flavour is indescribable. There is a richness that I have never experienced outside of a fancy wedding dinner or expensive restaurant. There is a pronounced butter note that I can't figure out where it comes from (since there is no butter in the recipe), I'm guessing these are all flavours that are hidden in the demi-glace / stock / gelatin? that only reveal themselves once heavily reduced. Either way, we were both blown away. And it was just as good the next day reheated. We have another half vacuum sealed and ready for sous-vide reheating when we are craving it. Thanks for another great recipe, and for the time you put into making these great videos. Always an inspiration. UPDATE: The sous-vide batch was barely edible. The meat was so so so dry, I was very surprsed. (It didn't go to waste). But I'll have to research that ...

    this is a very good recipe, i want to tell those who may not have access to all of these that you can still make a good Beef bourguignon without all of them, you dont have to have a cheese cloth, you dont have to have demi glace, and honestly the veggies become very tasty after being cooked for that long, i would recommend just cooking it 3 hours straight up and if you really really want to get rid of the fat you could take out the meat pieces first, put them in a separate bowl, then put the dutch oven in the fridge, it will be easier to get rid of the fat but if i'm honest there usually really isn't that much fat so i don't even bother taking it out.

    Brian, I made this for a dinner party on Sunday night and it was a big hit! One of my guests had dental surgery a week before and I really wanted the beef to be super tender - and your techniques really worked. I had to watch it about 40 times, stopping every 30 seconds 😄. I must say seeing you eat the giant mouthful of demi glace made me laugh each time. Looking forward to making more great food with your guidance.

    I have been able to find nice fresh pearl onions at our local grocery stores in the last quarter of a year and I will say that adding those make this even better. If you see them, do yourself a favor and buy them, the sweetness of them was just amazing. I cut the root end off of each, flash boil them for a min and then shock them in cold water which allows you to pinch them right out of their skins and then saute them in the same pan i do the mushrooms in right afterwards. I think the extra 10-20 mins is super worth it if you can find them. Making this for my mom this weekend and i cant wait to share it. Best part of cooking for me is seeing people enjoy it!

    As a flemish Belgian, we have a variation of this dish made with beer (and mustard and a specific kind of syrup), wikipedia says it is called 'carbonade flamande' on the english wiki, which is actually the french name??.. (in flanders we speak dutch and call it 'stoofvlees' which literally means stewed meat) This with french (but actually belgian) fries is like a national dish we eat a lot here and you can get it in practically any restaurant/bistro or friterie. I've never seen it done with first putting the meat in the oven (I'm sure for big batches it is the best/only way), but that looks super handy, I'll have to try that. Other than that, really good video in many aspects, really enjoy your content in general, thanks!

      "Carbonade flamande"(basically "Flemish Carbonade") is originating from Northern France which was part of the County of Flanders until 1790. There is a small difference between "stoofvlees" and the original recipe which is that "Carbonade Flamande" uses cassonade sugar when Stoofvlees usually uses syrup from Liège/Luik. I also cook it a lot during fall/winter.

While the Child method is time consuming, it is worth it when you take the time to do it right. No pearl onions or lardons is sacrilege IMO 😂.

    When you use grams for measurement, do you measure each ingredient out in a separate container? If not, how do you compensate when you accidentally dump, say, 100 grams of tomato paste instead of the required 25 grams? Do you fish out the excess or just leave it in and hope to guess better next time? If you fish it out, do you throw away the excess, or put it back into the original container, even though it is now contaminated by other ingredients? Either way seems wasteful, given that simply using teaspoons and tablespoons is so much quicker, easier, less prone to human error, and quite accurate enough for almost any recipe.

    • @john27609
      @john27609 2 роки тому

      I am making this recipe right now and had to run to the market for Demi Glacé, tomato paste, and gelatin. Came back, dumped the whole can of tomato paste in the pot that had already cooked an hour, thought about it for a while and looked to see how much. The 100oz can was way too much, so I scooped the dollops out and tossed in the sink. Tomato paste is $.89 a can and why use expensive paste when you’re not likely to notice.

    • @EnSnut
      @EnSnut 2 роки тому

      The issue with tsp/tbsp is that they can vary a lot not only by size of the spoon but also how much you fill the spoon. It's not an exact measurement and it can certainly be used to give a rough estimate which is also how you should read the gram measurement, if you got a 100g tomato paste tube you (should) just estimate and squeeze out that amount once you are comfortable with estimates. I hope and don't think anyone actually measures something like tomato paste on a scale. With your example however when you use 4 times the amount suggested I'd just scoop it out and throw it away as it's kinda tainted, unless you plan to use the next day or so. Otherwise just learn/google a measurement conversion like 25g would be roughly 2x tbsp.

    • @jessebanwell5705

      I have a nice scale, so I usually us it for his recipes, especially for water and flour. For things like salt and yeast, measuring spoons are probably easier tbh, but since I have my scale out already I just keep adding. I just add less and less at a time as I get closer to the required amount so as not to go over.
